Project Andromeda - Massive Power for Scuderia Cazzani Offshore Racing Team
HDB caught up with Serafino Cazzani, of the Scuderia Cazzani Offshore Racing Superboat team, which competed in the Superboat Unlimited class of the Super Boat International World Championships this past November, in Key West, FL.
The team has been busy developing new turbos for their Stotler engines, which they designed in Rhode Island, and shipped to Stotler Racing & Custom Marine to be tuned and tested, by Herb Stotler. Initial test results are VERY promising, and they are only scratching the surface!!! The power figures of the quad turbos are IMPRESSIVE so far, with the peak power yet to be fully UNLEASHED!!! In preliminary testing, the engines hit 1,645hp at 6,500rpms. The team believes after being fully tuned, these beasts will be putting out 2,000HP apiece, at 7,000 rpms!!!
STAY TUNED TO HDB FOR FURTHER UPDATES!!!!

Great news. look forward to seeing them "unleashed" on us this season. Should we expect to see the Scudaria Cazzini boat at all the events this year? Does SC have a schedule? first race is 2 months away?

Our schedule is not set, but I do plan on running multiple races.
Hopefully these monsters won't be unleashed on us. We are cautiously optimistic.

Sounds like we will we SC later in the season. As you know Scotty and I raced a Platinum with big power for a number of years. It can be a handful at higher speeds. Make sure you address the canopy issues seriously. With big power comes fast accel and big speeds...and the potential for big impacts. The windscreen/structure and hatches all need upgrading to match your increase in power/class you are racing.

I'm eternally grateful for the guidance and assistance you always freely offer and heed your advice. It's reassuring to know I have an ally as well as an adversary. However the present "Kings of the Rough" are clearly in my sights.
See you soon, SC
